✦ Synopsis

Thinner is a substance that is used for industrial purposes and for drug abuse; addiction is of young people (average age, 7.5 years). Although the health problem of voluntary or nonvoluntary solvent sniffing is important, great attention has been paid to the epidemiology and pharmacology of paint thinner or industrial solvents inhalation, but studies at the morphological and biochemical level are scarce. This work describes the morphological changes in the lung, liver, kidney, adrenal glands, and central nervous system induced by short-(up to 4 weeks) and long-term (up to 14 weeks) periods of thinner inhalation in rats. Microsc.

## Abstract Humans can come into contact with thinner by occupational exposure or by intentional inhalation abuse. Numerous studies of workers for genotoxic effects of thinner exposure have yielded conflicting results, perhaps because co‐exposure to variable other compounds cannot be avoided in wor
